"It's another Agent Renault adventure from @jnevair and another thrilling dose of spy-fi fun!... Don't miss out on this if you like spies, space, or just a plain slice of fun between heavy reads."

Thanks Andrew for being a die-hard Agent Renault fan!

An image of a book cover held in a hand in front of an English garden. Behind is a small shed. The cover has a woman spy holding a blaster, with a sci-fi vibe and the title reads, Cosmic Widow. The cover is red and black color scheme.
